Generating a Server ID File

Deprecated: Legacy (On-Premise) Licensing

As of the summer of 2016, all Legacy Licensing was deprecated. All users are now advised to use the Flexible Licensing model.

To install licenses on a machine, you must create a Server ID File that contains the hardware information for that computer. The Server ID File contains information such as the MAC address, hard drive serial number, and other data unique to the machine for which it is generated. This information is used to tie the license to that machine, so that the license cannot be moved to another machine once generated. The License Server needs to be running to generate the Server ID file.

If you plan to run the License Server on a virtual machine, please ensure the guest VM has a valid and consistent MAC address in it.

As of version 11.1 (March 2013), the LumenVox Dashboard can be used to generate Server ID files on any machine hosting the License Server. This is also the recommended method of interacting with licenses.

Generating Server ID Files on Linux via Command Line

If you wish to use the command line on Linux, the lv_license_manager tool allows for the creation of Server ID files without the Dashboard. To use the command line interface to generate ID files, use the following command from the machine where the License Server is installed:

/usr/bin/lv_license_manager -g path

where path is the location you would like to use for the Server ID file. For example, if you wanted to create the server ID file in the /opt directory,you would type

/usr/bin/lv_license_manager -g /opt/Info.bts

(If you do not have a Web browser installed on the same machine as the License Server, use a tool such as scp to move the Info.bts file to a computer with a Web browser and an Internet connection.)
